It looks to me like you would need to file out a slit in the plate large enough for the wire to come up at that angle through the hole. If you have a cheap steel wire you can test with you might try making a bend or filing the wire flat in that area to try and get some more articulation? from it. I wouldn't risk ruining those gold wires though.
(great documentation by the way)
Have you tried flashing the pcb yet? Mine came with the arrow keys backwards along with a few other people I talked to and it won't take a flashIt looks to me like you would need to file out a slit in the plate large enough for the wire to come up at that angle through the hole.

yeah that was the only thing i can think off, but it might ruin the finish on the plate, especially the other one coz its black. :(
contacted the seller/maker from china, i hope they understand what i mean.
So I recently acquired a KBD75 keyboard from KBDfans (direct from taobao)
Last week I started building it with these specs in mind:
-Garistotle (gateron blue housing and spring | Aristotle stems)
-Zeal Screw In stabilizers
-Alu plate and Case
-75% pcb
After modding all the switches and installing all the stabsShow Image(https://i.imgur.com/CG1ni63.jpg)
I mounted some switches and tested the stabilizers, everything seemed fine until i tested the spacebar, garistotles are supposed to be clicky, but the spacebar wasnt clicking. so i tested various stuff until i noticed this
http://gph.is/2lBHnTF
The stab wire actually hits the plate on this spot:Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/thKezF9.jpg)Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/MzvKGfR.jpg)
What i tried to do already:
1. Change spring(mx clear spring) coz i thought the switch couldnt handle the weight of the spacebar
2. Change the wire coz i noticed that zeal wires are thicker than the chinese wire and gmk wire
3. FLIP the stab but yeah it doesnt work as shown below:Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/iEZSJwo.jpg)
So aside from Modding the plate itself(i checked whether it was an issue on this specific plate alone but i have 2 of these and they are shaped the same),
Any other ideas guys?

Not sure was just wondering if yours was the same way as mine and several other people I've talked to :/Have you tried flashing the pcb yet?
